Unidentified Flying Objects Photographs in 1959

Summary

In 1959, an internal CIA document mentions photographs of unidentified flying objects taken by an American citizen using a telescope from his own backyard. This individual, over the course of three months, managed to capture images of geometrically shaped objects passing between his telescope and the moon. Although the photos themselves have not been directly reviewed, it is noted that the photographic process used was of high resolution. A technician at the CIA laboratory noticed these images and confirmed that they depicted distinct objects observed on multiple occasions.

The report emphasizes the importance of investigating this phenomenon, as it had no clear explanation and generated considerable interest. Assistance is requested to obtain access to the photographic materials and conduct a more thorough analysis. The author also mentions that the subject who took the photos was very careful with his material and did not allow anyone to borrow it. It is also indicated that the subject had no active contracts with the Air Technical Intelligence Center at the time, suggesting he was not directly working for a government agency.
